Interesting. It's very strongly flavored with the "Asian pear" flavor, which to me actually tastes like the artificial "green apple" flavor Jolly Rancher hard candy. It's tasty, but I don't get much of the tea flavor from it, just green apple.

A basic storage chest. Nothing fancy, and it kind of looks like something I made in high school shop class (way back in the dark ages when they still had shop classes), since it's just bent and glued plastic pieces. It seems sturdy, but it's a bit overpriced for what it is.

That said, this is just what I needed to corral all the tea bags in my cupboard, and it's prettier than random beat-up boxes. It keeps the bags organized, accessible, and makes a nice display. It also holds a lot- I can get at least 12 bags in each cell. I got a second chest for work and it fits perfectly in my desk drawer next to my loose tea canisters. I did remove the lid from the one in my desk, just for ease of access in the drawer. It pops right out of the pivots, and can be reattached later if needed.

Overall, I like this tea chest and I'm glad I got two. So I give this a good rating, with one star off for the price and the somewhat sharp edges of the plastic.

This is not at all what I was expecting. I find this tea too earthy, with somewhat unpleasant musty and nutty/dark overtones. It's really very odd for a white tea. Maybe I got a mislabeled bag or something....

This is not at all what I was expecting. I find this tea too earthy, with somewhat unpleasant musty and nutty/dark overtones. It's really very odd for a white tea. Maybe I got a mislabeled bag or something. I can't drink it straight, but it's ok if I mix it with mint.

This is a light, sweet tea that is wonderfully calming and has a great floral perfume/taste that's not overpowering, with just the barest hint of fruitiness. It's best made with water a little cooler than a full boil and a shorter steep time. The first time I made this tea, the first cup was somewhat uninteresting and edging toward bitter, but the second cup from the same leaves was amazing and the third cup was subtler but still good. With the second batch of leaves, I got it right the first time and all three cups were incredible.

This is a complex blend and has many layers of flavors. I normally don't like cinnamon teas, but the flavors in this blend are very well balanced between mint and cinnamon and citrus. The mint sort of ties everything together,and the cinnamon is subtle and doesn't dominate. The clove and cardamom add a wonderful undertone.

This is a nice blend. The chocolate flavor isn't overpowering or strong, but it is definitely there, and it complements the tingly mint nicely. The flavors mingle and the whole is greater than the sum...

Original review on 4/8/12: This is a great little canister to store tea. The inner liner on the lid seals it tight, and tea stays fresher if air stays out. A great product, and I wish I had one for every variety of tea I have! Holds more than it would seem at first glance- I got a full 50 gram bag of fluffy tea in mine, and 100 grams of fine tea with some room left over.

Update on 3/4/13: I had to update my review, because while I stand by my initial evaluation, the quality control on these canisters seems a bit spotty. The last tin I received didn't seal as tight as the first few. The opening was slightly too big for the lid and left a gap. I solved this by squeezing the opening smaller, by tying a wide shoelace around the rim (with the lid in place), then inserting a pencil under the shoelace and twisting the pencil until the rim was squeezed down to fit the lid. The lid is nice and snug now, and I'm perfectly happy with my canister.

This tea is perfect for just before bedtime. It's light and calming, with a sweet floral base that isn't overwhelmingly perfumy. Very nice, and I think it helps me sleep better.

I did notice that the bag is labeled "100% linden flowers", which it is NOT. It contains leaves as well, which actually is what the fine print in the website description says. This didn't affect my enjoyment of the tea, but if it matters to you that you get 100% flowers it's something to be aware of.
